North Dakota will transfer $175.0 billion to family and other heirs

Charitable giving, both lifetime gifts and bequests, is estimated at $89.3 bllion

Loss of capital to North Dakota due to estate taxes is estimated at an alarming $38.9 billion

Given this projected transfer of wealth and the tremendous charitable investment potential, nonprofits must prepare themselves to become superior performers capable of maximizing donors’ investments in their communities.When nonprofits operate more effectively, our communities are much better served.The Cando Connection Fund goal is to raise over $1 million to benefit the Cando area.Impact Foundation has waived its fund management fees.
